Ingredients:
    • 125ml extra-virgin olive oil
    • 65g brown sugar
    • 1 tsp salt
    • 1 tsp black pepper
    • 1 butternut squash, seeds removed and cut into half-moons
    • Rocket
    • Red chilli flakes
    • Half a pomegranate
    • 30g walnuts

    Instructions:
  1. In a bowl, mix the olive oil, brown sugar, salt and pepper together.
  2. Brush both sides of the squash slices with the mixture. Place the squash on the grill and cook for 8-12 minutes, depending on the thickness of your slices, until tender and golden brown. To prevent the sugar from burning, flip the squash slices regularly.
  3. While the butternut squash is cooking, chop up the walnuts and remove the seeds from the pomegranate.
  4. To serve, make a bed of rocket and lay the squash slices on top, sprinkling them with the chilli flakes, pomegranate seeds and chopped walnuts.
